About GARO

GARO (fanged wolf) is a Japanese tokusatsu television series. It was broadcast on TV Tokyo from October 7, 2005 to March 31, 2006, lasting 25 episodes (with one additional "Overview" special, summarizing the events of episodes 1 through 13, aired before episode 14). Produced by Tohokushinsha, the series is considered by some to be a turning point in tokusatsu entertainment, as it was marketed towards adults and older teenagers as opposed to younger children. The show contains graphic violence, nudity, and mature themes (viewer discretion is advised). It was marketed as a "Hyper Midnight Action Drama" and the success of the first series lead to a franchise which has had several films and subsequent seasons over the years.
